Dare To Expose The Darkness

DARE TO EXPOSE THE DARKNESS IN AN ILLUMINED WORLD OF LIGHT How could it be that there is so much darkness among so much light? Jesus declared that "few there would be that walk the narrow way to the small gate that leads to eternal life" . And that "men love darkness rather than light". Think that the world has changed for the better? Think again. The world that hated Christ has done so before the world was made. Men's hearts are still set continually to do evil. As in the days of Noah, as in the days of Lot, and the time of Enoch, human kind still loves darkness rather than light. What is deemed as light today is nothing less than what Jesus called "if the light that is in you is in darkness, how great is that darkness". I've been told by a brother that, aren't we suppose to preach Jesus and salvation; devoting ourselves to prayer and the word? Yes. Let's look at the sixth, and seventh chapters of Acts and see what happened. The Apostles were being confronted about the neglect of certains ones at the tables of food. And they came together on the issue of this neglect and assigned seven men of faith to serve tables in order that they continue to devote themselves to prayer and the ministry of the Word. One of them being Stephen, who would be the chosen one to expose the darkness that was prevailing over mankind of that era. Was this the ministry of the Word? Absolutely. Dare to expose the darkness, and die. After Stephen ministered the Word, in chapter seven of Acts verses 1-50, he dared exposed the darkness in verses 42,43 & 51-53 and died. The tabernacle of Moloch and the Star of Rompha has been brought along even unto today, the images which you made to worship them. The itching ears as then still prevails today, even in America. Even those who are called to serve tables, are called to expose the darkness, and die. Prophets are a group of the body of Christ that are not well accepted, not even today. Why? They have no interest of being a friend of the world, the world that still persecutes them and kills them. The prophets of the body of Christ that still cry out "You men who are stiffnecked and uncircumcised in heart and ears are always resisting the Holy Spirit; you are doing just as your fathers did". They had set aside the Law of Grace, and the Spirit of Grace, even unto today. The standard, measure and degree of account ability is higher today than before the cross, it is written in Matt. chapter 5 when Jesus declared "but I say to you". If you feel free to excuse youself it will be your greatest regret; Just as in the days of Noah, as in the days of Lot, so shall it be in the days of coming of the Son of Man. "If the light that is in you be in darkness how great is that darkness"? "Let God arise and His enemies be scattered". Prophets have not interest, nor self ambition in this world to gain or be a friend of. They devote themselves to prayer and the ministry of the

Word to dare to expose the darkness and die. The Master declared in Matthew 23 verses 29-38 "Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocites! (The world and the friends thereof) For you build the tombs of the prophets and adorn the monuments of the righteous, and say, 'If we had been living in the days of our fathers, we would not have been partners with them in shedding the blood of the prophets.' "Consenquently you bear witness against yourselves, that you are sons of those who murdered the prophets. "Fill up the measure of the guilt of your fathers. "You serpents, you brood of vipers, how shall you escape the sentence of hell? "Therefore, behold I am sending you prophets and wise men and scribes; some of them you will kill and crucify, and some of them you will scourge in your synagogues, and persecute from city to city, that upon you may fall the guilt of all the righteous blood shed on earth, from the blood of righteous Abel to the blood of Zechariah, the son of Berechiah, whom you murdered between the temple and the altar. "Truly I say to you, all these things will come upon this generation. "Oh Jerusalem, Jerusalem, who kill the prophets and stone those who are sent to her! How often I wanted to gather your children together, the way the chick gathers her chicks under her wings, and you were unwilling. "Behold, your house is being left to you desolate! As in the days of Noah, and as in the days of Lot. It will be the same on the day that the Son of Man is revealed. Everyone (the world and the friends thereof) will be doing what's right in their own sight because there are no true judges in the earth even today. Setting aside the Spirit of grace to gain the world. "But they all alike began to make excuses. The first one said to him, I have bought a piece of land and I need to go out and look at it; please consider me excused.' "And another on said, 'I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I am going to try them out; please consider me excused.' "And another one said , 'I have married a wife, and for that reason I cannot come.' Compare this to Luke 17 verses 27,28. America is the fulfillment of gaining the whole world, and losing your own soul. Is it worth it to lose what is to come, in order to have what will be replaced by what is to come, and be a part of ...how shall you escape the sentence of hell? Because you have chose to be a friend of the world that hated Jesus. Dare to expose the darkness and die, in an illumined world of false counterfeit light, a mimic and imitation of the Light of the World. Never lose sight that these that Stephen reproved had many followers, many, and they were and are today the ones that the Apostle James addressed in his epistle chapter 4 verses 1-5. Anything that I could gain or obtain I also count as rubbish that I also may win Christ. For the things that are seen are passing, (will be replaced) in order that the things that are not seen can replace the things that are seen. "Not that I have already obtained it, or have already become perfect, but I press on in order that I may lay hold of that for which also I was

laid hold of by Christ". I press on toward the mark of the prize, in order to miss the mark of the beast. For the many who miss the mark of the prize, will find themselves taking the mark of the beast by surprize. If we fight to bring back what is and will pass on by in time and space, then you fail to see what is coming IICor.4:16-18 "Therefore having overlooked the times of ignorance, God is now declaring to men that all everywhere should repent". Acts 17:30 Do you eagerly want to restore what is dwindling, dissolving and disappearing, or eagerly awaiting His appearing to restore with the eternal? The Spirit of Power, the Spirit of Life and the Spirit of Grace is driving out of the house of the Lord, the darkness. Don't let ignorance rob what was predestined before you were in your mother's womb. Don't fall to the trappers trap or the fowlers snare; deceitful are kisses of the world and it's lust. Don't be deceived to believe that gross darkness has not covered the earth. Be one of the few, the redeemed, that shall escape the sentence of hell. Return to Christ with your whole heart. Come back to your first love, the love of the truth unto salvation. So that the deluding influence not cause you to believe what is false. Resist the pleasure of wickedness, avoid being judged. Give Him back His house and be filled with the Spirit of Power, Life and Grace. Let the Light of the Glory of God in Christ Jesus expose the darkness. "For whether we live or die we are the Lords. Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? Just as it is written, "For Thy sake we are Being put to death all day long; We were considered as sheep to be slaughtered. But in all these things we overwhelmingly conquer through Him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor and other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord". Romans 14:8; 8:35-39 The wrath of the enemy is his field day of deception and has fallen grossly upon the earth "and My People love it so". If the light that is in you be in darkness how great is that darkness? It is the gross darkness of self that separates man from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus. "The spirit of man is the lamp of the Lord searching the inner most parts of his being." Don't be stiffnecked and uncircumcised in heart and ears always resisting the Holy Spirit, just as your fathers did". Dare for the darkness to be exposed and dare to expose the darkness, and dare to love not your own life even unto death. Let no one deceive you with empty words, like peace and saftey and

all is well, for all is not well and the battle is not rageing against flesh and blood. And the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the destruction of fortresses in heavenly places that are manifested upon the earth. "Do not participate in the unfruitful deeds of darkness, but rather expose them". Unfruitful deeds of darkness will appear to be light in the minds eye, the things that illusions will cloth with what appeals to the mind of fallen man, the carnal part of man that Satan has access to even today. But not the mind of Christ, for the mind of Christ still declares even today "You still have nothing in Me". Have we the mind of Christ, or another's? Many unsound doctrines have gone out sounding like sound doctrines. "The son's of Zion will be at war with the son's of Greece". What was it that was birthed out of Ancient Greece? Could it be Democracy / Republic it's child? The more society and the church adapts and become use to the darkness the more that the darkness appears as an angel of light. The lions that could not eat Daniel, are eating the church up today because they cannot get their eyes off themselves, and this false system of light that causes the church to believe that all is well; peace and safety. Daniel had his eyes so far off of himself that the lions could not even see him, they could only see the One who created and covered him. And surely the lions could not eat their creator. Who is your provision, protection and covering, who is your light, joy and strength? It will be only a few that are willing to dare to expose the darkness and love not their own lives even unto death. Bond servant of Christ Don E. Anz
